The Gunners midfielder has been out of action for 14 months after struggling to recover from knee and ankle injuries but played a full 90 minutes on Monday afternoon

Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere played a full 90 minutes and grabbed an assist during the club's Under-21's 2-1 victory over Everton on Monday.

The 20-year-old has been out of action for 14 months after struggling to recover from ankle and knee injuries. However, his presence as an unused substitute for the Gunners' loss at Norwich City on Saturday coupled with his recent appearances for his club's youth side are signs that he is not far from making a return to first-team action.
